The Battle of the Reality Shows

Besides the new spring lineup for sitcoms and miniseries, there are also several new and upcoming reality shows you can all add to your list of guilty pleasures.

First there was Laguna Beach, then The Hills, and then The City (which was incredibly boring).  Now it seems the reality stars of MTV can’t stay away from the spotlight.  Audrina Patridge will now have her own show on VH1, surprisingly called Audrina. It will premiere April 17, at 9 p.m.  The reality star is leaving behind her Dancing with the Stars roots and her Hills fame for life back in Orange County. The show will feature her family, including her mother and father and her three siblings.  Now being a big fan of Lauren Conrad, Audrina has a lot to live up to and let’s pray Justin Bobby isn’t involved! 


Also, my favorite Real Housewives of New Jersey star, Dina Manzo, is returning to TV with her new show on HGTV.  After controversy and fights with fellow Housewives star, Danielle Staub, Manzo left the show to get away from the conflict. Her new show will focus on her party-planning business, Design Affairs.  The show is currently untitled but plans to air in September. 

Lastly, Toni Braxton is trying to restart her career with a new reality show about her life and family. Toni Braxton, a Grammy-winning R&B singer, has had a tough past including a divorce, bankruptcy, and several health issues.  She hopes the show will help bring her and her sisters back into the spotlight. The show will be called “Braxton Family Values” and will be aired on WE on Tuesday nights. 
So, with all these different reality shows around which ones do you plan on watching?!
